Wild phlox, more azaleas, begonias and bee lavender

I think the first flowers, Hesperis matronalis below are of American origin, where they are called wild phlox. It creates a lovely display each year, but I never get around to staking it, so it falls gracefully into the pathway. Azaleas are still going strong, and are now joined by the small double perpetual flowering begonias, which will put on a lovely show right through to early autumn. Nearby in the herb garden, bee lavender is looking good and attracting some bees brave enough to venture out in the cold and wet weather we are having.
